Getting Real in California

I’ve been reading and talking a lot lately about the idea of tackling climate change by “thinking globally and acting locally.” It’s not a novel concept; in fact, it’s becoming the mantra in everything from politics to marketing to social causes.

Water Utilities Are Lagging Other Utilities in the Smart Cities Effort

Across the U.S., smart city programs are moving beyond press releases, pilot programs and demonstrations.

Go Batty Over Bat Conservation

It may come as a surprise, but we go batty over bats at our Auburn Hills Complex – and it’s not just during Halloween. Scattered across the grounds are 10 bat houses with each having the potential to shelter 100 - 300 bats and their young that need nurturing. Over the past three years, FCA US has supported bat conservation efforts across our 504-acre wetlands site that sits roughly 30 miles north of Detroit. Our employees build or donate bat houses and install them in ideal bat habitat areas.
